How to expunge a criminal record in Riverside County

A criminal defense lawyer explains the process to expunge a record of criminal conviction in Riverside County, California.

The first step, as we explain, is to file a petition for expungement with the court. The next step is to argue the motion before the judge. If the motion is granted, then the "guilty" or "no contest" plea is changed to not guilty, and the case is dismissed. The practical effect then is that a potential employer is not allowed to use the expunged conviction against you in hiring or promotion decisions.
